DESCRIPTION:The DynaFun project intends to showcase EFTs as a biodiversity 
 indicator for non-stand shifts in forest ecosystems. EFTs are land delinea
 tions that result from similar energy and matter processes such as carbon 
 storage or hydrological cycle. As such\, vegetation indices are a well-acc
 epted proxy indicator for ecosystem functionality. In this study Sentinel-
 2 satellite imagery has been used to derive remotely sensed NDVI to produc
 e an EFT land classification over Catalonia. Plant carbon dynamics are inf
 erred through the derivation of productivity (NDVImean)\, seasonality (NDV
 Icovariate) and phenology (NDVIDay of Maximum). Catalonia has a mixed land
  use land cover (LULC) system that is heavily influenced by its Mediterran
 ean climate. It causes interannual\, variable environmental changes reflec
 ted in its vegetation dynamics. Non-stand shifts occur before visible stru
 ctural changes. This project presents an opportunity to enrich Land use la
 nd cover and habitat categories to determine their stability\, resilience 
 and drivers of change. This information is crucial for forest management a
 nd can act as an early warning indicator for biodiversity change for plann
 ers and policy developers.
